After a disappointing 0-3 start to the regular season, the Philadelphia 76ers finally snagged their first win on Monday night, 120-106 over the Indiana Pacers. While strong efforts from James Harden, Joel Embiid, and Tobias Harris led the way, the victory probably wouldn’t have occurred without the production the team received from its second unit. The bench scored a combined 36 points on Monday, a substantial upgrade from the group’s total of 34 points across the first three games.
Georges Niang led the reserves in scoring Monday night with 13 points, powered by a 3-of-6 night from downtown.
